VICTORIA, B. C, Aug. 3. A re
crudescence of forest fires is re
ported from various parts of tho

looking to the skies for rain, which

wliile tho followiug telegram froui
tho government agent at Nelson in
dicates tho seriousness of tho situ
ation in that district:
"Forest fires raging throughout
this district. I havo so far answered
all calls for assistance nnd done ev
erything possible to check, but the
demands are increasing and ex
penses also. New fires are breaking
out in every direction, and I find it
very difficult to copo with tho situ
ation. The Ilnll's Siding fire has
extended to tho Silver King mino nnd
burned out a number of mine build
ings and is spreading rapidly. Bad
fires nro reported from many points
and small ones arc numerous. If
rain docs not come soon the situation
will be exceedingly serious."

idiom while the tones of the hour

Only reading and study will enable
you to appreciate it. It has aroused
all France London has gone mad
